The
organ is the instrument
on which the young
Giacomo Puccini began his
career as a musician.
Through the rediscovery
of a considerable number
of hand-written pieces,
which he composed after
1870 as part of his
duties as organist in the
churches of Lucca,
several primary sources
are now available. These
give an insight into the
beginnings of his musical
activities which have
only been known about
from anecdotes from his
first biographers until
now. Puccini's organ
repertoire includes works
which were typical for
liturgical organ music at
that time: sonatas for
the main sections of the
mass, versets which were
substituted for Gregorian
chant, marches, which
were played after the
mass (exceptionally even
waltzes), and even a
pastorale for Christmas
time. This music was
written with the sound of
instruments made in
Tuscany in mind. These
have just one manual, a 8
foot Principale register
and a small pedalboard
always coupled to the
manual. In addition there
were several solo stops
divided into bass and
soprano.Puccini
contributed with
originality to the
renewal of Italian organ
practice, which began in
his day to discard its
operatic style in favor
of a style more suited to
the liturgy.

As
well as 20 organ sonatas
and seven collections of
stand-alone organ pieces
with opus numbers,
Rheinberger composed a
whole range of smaller
works for organ methods
or organ collections for
his favorite instrument,
mainly at the request of
colleagues and
friends.
The
posthumously compiled
collection of ten smaller
organ pieces WoO 25
brings together a series
of interesting pieces
from the years 1854 to
1896. It includes one of
just two chorale settings
by Rheinberger, the
prelude on “Wenn
ich einmal soll
scheidenâ€. With
short trios, preludes and
fugues in different keys,
the collection is
particularly suitable for
use in worship, but also
for teaching.

Organ Symphony
No. 2 (2017) was written
for and is dedicated to
German organist Philip
Hartmann. In all of my
works that employ
larger-scale forms (not
just organ compositions),
I am continually looking
for different ways of
providing the form and
structure. My first organ
symphony (2013) comprised
three larger movements
that charted a
progression from dark to
light. By contrast, this
second organ symphony
comprises 12 shorter
movements that together
build a larger structure
out of varied emotional
states. Although the
movements are different
in character, there are
connections of harmony
and motive across them.
One goal behind this work
is that it be suitable
for effective performance
on almost any organ,
small or large. Most
organ symphonies require
a large instrument. By
contrast, this piece can
be played effectively on
even a small organ with a
limited number of stops
(even a one manual organ
with an octave pedal
board). It can also be
very effective on a large
symphonic organ with many
different colors and a
huge tutti. Registration
is left to the
performer's discretion,
and the organist is
strongly encouraged to
use the full extent of
whatever resources are
available.

This
edition is the result of
Harald Vogel's many years
of practice as an
organist and
musicologist. The music
text is based on a
reevaluation of 17th- and
18th-century manuscripts
containing the free organ
and keyboard works by
Buxtehude. They
originated during a
transitional phase
between the traditional
letter tablature and the
staff notation still in
use today. Since many
works have survived only
in transcriptions for
staff notation, the
editor was confronted
with a high error rate,
which he carefully
analyzes in the
Einzelanmerkungen. During
the preparation of the
edition, the editor
always kept sight of the
performance practice, but
still, the image of the
sources is never
distorted (e. g. by
superfluous rests,
beaming not conforming to
the sources and the
unhistorical adjustment
of time signatures) and
stays very close to the
compositional notation,
the letter tablature. The
flexible use of three
staves and the
differentiated
distribution of the
voices on the staves
allow for an
approximation in reading
conventions of historical
notation with its
resulting information
about hand division.
Grouping the free organ
repertoire into works
with obbligato pedal and
works for manuals, this
edition is organized in
two volumes. The first
subvolume (I/1, EB 9304)
contains the Preface and
the Preludes, whereas the
second subvolume (I/2, EB
9305) contains Toccatas,
Ostinato works,
alternative versions and
a comprehensive Critical
Commentary (in German
only). Volume II (EB
9306) contains
Buxtehude's free organ
and keyboard works
(manualiter) with the
corresponding texts
(Preface and Critical
Commentary).Until 1971,
Harald Vogel worked on a
dissertation (with Georg
von Dadelsen, Hamburg) on
Die Fuge um Bach. Besides
the description of the
inclusion of triple
measures into the C
notation and the
irregularities of the
voice mutation in the
polyphonic structures,
this also included a
discussion about the
justification of the
inner textual criticism.
With the inner textual
criticism, deviations in
parallel passages are
unified. The North German
fugue style, reaching a
peak in Buxtehude's work,
is characterized by a
constant diversity of
details in subject and
polyphonic progressions.
One of the indicators of
the fantastic style is
the dissolution of the
polyphonic structures at
the ends of the fugues,
evident in Buxtehude's
work.In this edition, a
musical text is presented
that avoids the
uniformity of detail not
conforming to the
sources. However, there
are many examples of
transcription and cursory
errors, which are
analyzed in a methodical
systematic manner. About
the editor: As an

Anton
Bruckner composed his
first mass, the Mass in D
minor, in 1864 in just
four months. It was not
ready in time for the
Kaiser Franz Joseph I's
birthday, as planned, but
was first performed on 20
November at the Feast of
St Cecilia in Linz
Cathedral - with great
success. The mass is one
of the first works by
Bruckner to be written in
his characteristic
symphonic style. It was
revised several times and
first published in 1892.
This edition is based on
a critical evaluation of
all the relevant sources,

On the
occasion of the
quincentenary of
Reformation Day in 2017,
the composer Enjott
Schneider thoroughly
studied Martin Luther the
individual and all his
contradictions. The
result is a brilliant,
demanding organ symphony
which is perfect for
concerts on the subject
of Reformation and Martin
Luther.The composer
describes the five
movements of the symphony
as follows:'1st
movement:Wir glauben all
an einen Gott with its
quintuplet-like beginning
is very Gregorian in
style, outlining the
range of Lutheran
emotionalism between the
Middle Ages and the
modern era. The
irrationality of faith
ultimately has priority
over any thought and
evidence. At the
beginning of the
movement, sounds of
knocking on wood remind
of the nailing of the
Ninety-Five Theses to the
doors of churches in
Wittenberg. The chorale
melody sometimes hides
with an almost rough
medieval saltarello,
referring to Luther's
robustness and vitality
with which he knew to
carry away even common
people.2nd movement:In
1530, the electoral
prince of Saxony
presented to Luther at
Coburg Castle the golden
signet ring with the
Luther rose which became
the symbol of his
theology of grace. A
white heart with black
cross is fixed on a
five-petalled rose. To
him, white is the colour
of angels and ghosts,
black stands for the pain
of crucification: The
just shall live by faith,
but by faith in the
Crucified. But the fact
that the rose and the
heart are the dominating
symbols shows how
Catholic Marian piety
remained an ingredient of
Luther's spirituality
throughout his life. In
line with the dominant
five-petal structure of
the rose, this movement
was composed, to a large
extent, in accordance
with the floating,
lyrical rhythm in 5/8
time.3rd movement:The
omnipresence of death and
dying - from the plague
and war to the
never-ending dangers of
daily life - was an
essential part of the
world view of that time.
Fears ensued that might
heighten into the
grotesque, e.g. in the
pictures of Hieronymus
Bosch. The Danse macabre
was a popular motif in
those years. Luther's
chorale Mitten wir im
Leben sind / mit dem Tod
umfangen from 1524
(Enchiridion from Erfurt)
is based on the Gregorian
chant Media vita in morte
sumus created in France
around 750 and, with its
idea of transience,
inspired a simplistic
air.4th movement:The
famous confession
delivered at the Diet of
Worms in 1521, I stand
here and can say no more.
God help me. Amen, are
not Luther's words but
the version later used as
text for a pamphlet.
However, it represents
quite plainly the
straightforwardness and
inevitability of his
mission. Musically, it
was made into a perpetuum
mobile, i.e. a dogged,
ostinato and never-ending
musical air.5th
movement:The Mighty
Fortress, on the other
hand, is one of the great
symbols of Martin Luther
which, with its shining C
major key, embodies the
Protestant ideology and
willful nature of the
Reformation unlike any
other song. Heinrich
Heine called it the
Marseille anthem of the
Reformation, Friedrich
Engels the Marseillaise
of the Peasants' Wars.
This disputability is not
thought through to the
end but rather
interrupted: With a
jubilant birdcall version
of the melody, the finale
shows a rather
chamber-music-like side
of the ideals of freedom
of Christians.'.

The
American musical patrons
Mildred and Robert Wood
Bliss were considering
which distinguished
composer to commission to
create a work in
celebration of their 30th
wedding anniversary in
1938. The couple had made
the acquaintance of Igor
Stravinsky in April the
preceding year at the
premiere of his ballet
Jeu de Cartes in New York
and had subsequently
invited the composer to
their country home
'Dumbarton Oaks' in
Washington D.C. to talk
about a new composition.
Stravinsky only just
managed to complete the
work in time for the
anniversary celebrations:
its date of completion
was also the date of its
first performance. For
his classically styled
three-movement work, he
selected the title
Concerto in E flat,
adding the subtitle
Dumbarton Oaks as a
dedication. The structure
of the work references
the concerto grosso: it
features a soloist
ensemble which unites in
the tutti sequences but
also plays in concertino
groups during the solo
episodes. Broken chordal
structures characterise
the central movement
whereas the outer
movements are
distinguished through
their use of fugato.
Dumbarton Oaks went on to
become one of Stravinskys
mostsuccessful works,
performed widely and
delighting Mildred Bliss
so much that she
immediately issued
another commission, for
the Symphony in C. Its
composer's very public
commitment to American
cultural life helped pave
the way for Stravinskys
emigration to the USA in
1945. As early as 1952
Leif Thybo created an
arrangement for organ
which Stravinsky probably
did not know at the time
of his life.
